About
Lost Coast Brewery was founded by Wendy Pound and Barbara Groom in 1989 in Eureka. The brewery outgrew the original location and moved to a larger building in Eureka in 1994. On August 20, 2014, they brewed their first batch of beer at another new facility just south of Eureka.

Bottle to nonic glass.
Appearance: murky dull copper color with a one finger white foamy head which dissolved fairly quick and didn't leave any lace
Aroma: light citrusy tones, some pepper, light notes of white bread and some dead flowers
Flavor: some sweetness but the dead flower tones seem to grasp and take hold of the flavor mostly; finishes dry with the dead flowers and with a dead grassiness too
Texture: light bodied, somewhat sessionable, extremely dry on the tongue
Overall: really hard to get through all of that, I swear I heard my drain calling to me "Adam, I'll take the rest of that for you" but I managed to get through that.

Bottle to nonic glass.
Appearance: dull yellow to orange color with a quickly dissipating semi-foamy to fizzy head, no lace
Aroma: super sweet tangerines, light grains
Flavor: the super sweet tangerines again; finishes syrupy tangerine sweet
Texture: light bodied, somewhat sessionable (I guess that's what this brewer wanted to go for anyways), carb feels pretty high in this, not as smooth as some other beers like this
Overall: not exactly sure what they were going for with this but I don't see myself coming back to this.

12 oz. can from Total Wine. Pours a very hazy gold color with a small white head and decent retention. Virtually no lacing. Less blackberry aroma than I expected. Very little blackberry flavor too. Certainly not a fruit beer. Slightly acidic finish. I expected better. Medium-light body. Medium carbonation. Not bitter. I love Lost Coast's Tangerine, but this is a miss for me.
